Controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, better known as Portable, has claimed that he is a mad man currently receiving treatment at the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Aro, Abeokuta.
Portable made this statement while appealing to Nigerians and the Ogun State Government on Tuesday, after the state police command declared him wanted.
The “Zazoo Zeh” hitmaker was reportedly involved in an altercation with three officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office: TPL Onabanjo Abidemi, TPL Raymond Lateef, and TPL Ridwan Oyero Akinlesi, who were conducting an enforcement exercise at Oke-Osa, Tigbo Ilu Ota, Ogun State.

The town planners said they encountered an elderly man, later identified as Portable’s father, at Odogwu Bar in the area.
After introducing themselves and requesting the approved building plan, the father told them his son was not available.
However, shortly afterward, Portable, armed with a firearm and other weapons, led a group of nine thugs in a violent attack on the unarmed officials.
The police claimed, “The enforcement officers sustained various bodily injuries but managed to escape and reported the incident to the Ota Area Command, which subsequently escalated the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department for further action.
“Nine accomplices were arrested, but Portable fled the scene and has since gone into hiding.”
In response to the declaration, Portable took to Instagram on Tuesday, sharing several rants in which he appealed to Nigerians and the state governor, Dapo Abiodun. He claimed that he was set up because he was wearing a vest featuring the face of Senator Adeola Solomon, commonly known as Yayi.
The singer also noted that he was a madman and has a card at Aro hospital where he usually takes his treatment.
He said, “I fear government. I am a federal government liability. Then I’m a madman; I have medications that I usually take. You can confirm from Aro Hospital. I have a card that certifies me as one of their patients.
“I am from Abeokuta and they are taking care of me there. I am not a thief, I help people around me without even looking at their background.”
